Jon,

How in the world can you turn such a "Blind Eye" to Stupid Laws!

One man driving alone without his seat belt hooked can be fined for
breaking the Law while the same police officer can direct traffic for a
School bus with at least 50 children in a school bus and driver---
ISN't"T BREAKING THE LAW??? spare me.

I guess you haven't been to any hearings over the lack of seatbelts in
school
buses, Thom. It's been debated to death. Modern school buses are designed
and
built specifically to contain and protect children in the event of a
collision.
The seatbacks are higher, and heavily padded, as are all the bars and
poles.
Seat belts in a school bus have been tried and turned out to be dangerous,
and
highly ineffective.

The bus driver, by the way, IS required by law to be wearing his seatbelt.
